The quality is comfortable with easy programming. BT is fast easy to set up. Also a nice controller to use alone with pc. Only dislikes is to get the most out of the software the user needs several different monthly subscriptions.

Nice controller for PS5 Remote Play

Works fantastic with PS5 Remote play! However, I did buy the Pro thinking I'd be able to use it as a bluetooth controller while remote-playing from a laptop.
PS5 Remote play does not support this controller on a laptop, only on your phone.
Knowing this, I would have bought the cheaper Playstation edition.

I'm sure it's a great device but from the first time I plugged it into my phone it just didn't feel right. I played with all the different attachments and unless I take my case of which is pretty slim it wouldn't plug into the USB. Ended up returning and just buying a controller to use on my phone. Would I recommend it? Probably if I know it'll fit perfect with your phone.

Too expensive, some cases not compatible.

This controller is great, but the price is way too high, and it isn't compatible with thicker cases due to the USB-C connecter being a bit on the short side. If you have a slim case, it's great. The only other caveat is that they force you to sign up for their paid subscription service before you can use it. Free trial for 7 days, but a $40 charge if you forget to cancel.

I dont have a pc or ps5 or xbox. I used it on my iphone 16 and its awesome. Got it for call of duty mobile app. You will need a good wifi signal! There are plenty of youtube videos if you get stuck along the way. But its pretty easy to set up.

This is my 3rd backbone controller (lost count of how many phonecontrollers) and it isgreat. The service is largely unnecessary, and i wish it had more options that just twitch for streaming but overall i love it and take it everywhere

I bought this for myself and love it. Now I can play games like Red Dead Redemption on my phone, turning my phone into a little Nintendo Switch. I bought the Pro version so I could Bluetooth it to my PC for gaming there, while having YouTube playing on my phone in my hands simultaneously.

Perfect! Wanted to play a new game on Xbox whenever, wherever. This was perfect and affordable (which, who doesn't live a good price in these times). I love this. Handfeel is a little strange at first as a dedicated console game, but it's not enough to be distraction.

I saw this little guy while browsing the sales and decided to give it a try. It can be a little bit tricky to set up, at least for me, but once it is setup its great. Its just an extra controller than can literally work with anything like phone, pc, or switch.

Difficult to gain access to Xbox games

So far, it's just okay. I haven't been able to get to my Xbox games, yet this seems to be a bit more difficult than they make it look. So far, it keeps trying to make me purchase the backbone subscription to play any games worth playing. This was not what they made the device look like from the adds and they make it look simple to get to your Xbox and PlayStation games, which so far it is not, but I am still working on it. If the device needs their subscription to be able to play most games, then it is a waste of money, but in all fairness, I am still trying to figure it out completly.
